The sloop Archduke,•hrlouging to Dundee, 69 tons. register, ready for sea; and hound for Shields, was cut out of the harbour in the night between Sabbath and Monday last. She had been moored in the title harbour, within the East Protection Well; and it is supposed she was cut out before midnight, as a vessel, in every respect resembling►. her, passed the Osnaborgh London packet, at the mouth of the Tay,. between two and three o'clock on Monday • morning. About two o'clock on Monday afternoon the Atha/ steam packet was got under weigh, and proceeded out of the Tay us far as the Bell Rock Lighthouse, in pursuit; but she returned - late in the evening without having been able to trace the course of the fugitive. . , One or the sloop's crew, named Mitchell, was left on board, the preceding evening in. charge of the vessel,' and he has not been seen . since. Whether he is an accomplice in the piracy, or was forcibly carried away in the sloop, is . . _ unknown., It. is generally reported that he, was in a state of , intoxication when on board on the Sabbath evening.— Every means for discovering whither tile vessel has been carried. will be taken ; and it .is much to be ,wished that the perpetrators of so daring a crime should be diseovered and brought to justice.—Cderlonian Mertiow. Ily a letter received dila morning in the City from Dun bar, the above vessel went on shore to the eastward of that place, without any person on hoard. .4 . • MPOUTS any EX PORTS of the ISLAND of: JAVA FOR TUUE YitAU Ib2s.

PUBLIC DISTRESS. COYE.•••••-it seems we were misinformed as to the non existence of distress in the Great Island 'and in the town of Cove. So far from the numbers requiring relief being con fined to two persons, we have good reason now to know, that there are upwards of four hundred persons within that district in a state of utter destitution. We have had the personal assurance of a resident gentleman, a magistrate, on the island, that within a,few days two persons have died of actual starvation. We know now, though we did not when the paragraph setting forth a very different state of things appeared in our paper of Saturday, that a Com mittee of the respectable inhabitants of Cove has been formed to meet this exigency, and we have the authority of several members of, this Charitable Association for stating the existing distress 41 be so great as we now re present it.• -The Cove Committee are, we understand, preparing an 'appeal to the public, and whatever aid the Press can afford them we will give with great earnestness. Ktsisst.E.—There is no part of this extensive County labouring under 'greater distress than this populous town. A great portion. of its poor inhabitants consist of persons who used to derive subsiettenee, and, in some seasons, a comfortable living from fishing; but the present season has lieea extremely unproductive. NITe do not underrate the windier of these men when we net it, down at 1000, and we should rather leave the public to judge, than attempt ourselve to describe, what their situation and prospects are at this moment. A subseription was entered into at Kin sale some time*ago. What ids amount or distribution was we donut kno'w ; but this ;wt do know, that it is exhaust ed, and that i 1 NWIVt hing he ifot done, there must be—dis tress awl despair.

Mr. SPENCE said he had an application to Mike to his Lordship for an injunetiMn to stay waste; and it was of an extremely pressing nature. The stream of• certain wa ters in Lincolnshire had been diverted, and the consequence was, that while one part of the country was flooded, another part was dried up for want, of water. The Lotto Citsm :mum said he would hear the motion at the beginning of next week, or at any other time more convenient. to the parties. He wished it to be understood, that the Court of Chancery twas alWays open for injune dons to stay waste, and tot i.prevent : irreparable mischief. The' Court for these purp(fiteS was never closed; and he recollected many instance in which he had heard and granted such injunctions at his country seat, as well as at inns on the road, to and front his country seat. He would, therefore, hear this motion at any time. Mr. SPENCE mentioned Monday next. -The. Lotto -Ctmemott. had rather take the ease on Tuesday or Wednesday, because he meant to reserve Saturday and Monday for reading over some of the eases upon which judgment was to be given. In the earlier part of this week he had intended to have devoted Wednesday and Thursday to this Purpose, but his attention had been unfortunately taken oil' by other duties, which he was compelled to perform. He had thus neglected to read some cases .which he now proposed to read to-morrow and Monday. On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday next, he should be ready to hear any thing of a pressing nature, and he should sit in hi. room on those days for that purpose. • • JUDGNIENTS. An elderly person, nearly at the termination of the pro eeedi»gs of the day, addressed his Lordship, and presented an old man who appeared to be bending under age, and suffering from infirmity, and holding a trumpet to his ear. " This poor old retort, 75 years of age,' said the person to his Lordship, " is Mr. Noble, the bankrupt, whose ease remains for judgment before your Lordship. All he wishes to know is, Mal her lie entertain any hope of obtain ing judgment in toe ease before *or Lordship rises." The LORD CHANCEI.I.OR—" Tell him I will satisfy him if I can." The old man's friend hoped he had not done wrong in asking for the judgment, but the old man was worn down with age, and oppressed with anxiety to know his fate. The Lotto CHANCELLOR told hint he had done quite rightly, and repeated that he would do what he could for him. In the case of Hill v. Reardon, which respects the claims on the French Government, his Lordship threw out some observations, and remarked upon the importance of the ease. He knew the parties were very anxious for this judgment before the vacation, and he would give them sa tisfaction if possible. His LORDSHIP promised judgment in Rose v. Manni ng , and Baddington v. Troyer, on - Tuesday, anti in Russell v. Sharp, on Wednesday. THE ARMY.

Tonson, w h o was a k een Wh ig , w h en h e published Dryden' s t rans l ation of Virgil, annoyed the veteran Tory poet very muc h, by causing everyfigure of /E.nea to be drawn, like King William, with a hooked nose. This gave rise to the following epigram : 41 obi Jam), b y deep fiigrailit sway'd, To ple3w the wise beholders, Has placed tdd Nassau's hooked nose On poor N.neas' shoulders, To make the parallel hold tack, Methinks a little 's lacking; One took his father pick a pack, And' t'other sent his packing." The pint ofit -is borrowed froin the following epigram on Nero :--- " Qui, negat Niiete Inagua de stirpe Nerunein? Sustulit hic niatrem, inistulit itle patron.' N.w itionth/y LONDON, SA7'URDAY EVENING, SEPT. 2, 1826. In our paper yeSterday we exclusively announced the intention of his MAJESTY'S Government to call Parlia ment together on the 14th November, and to relax the Corn regulations so far as to admit of the inunediitte importation of Foreign Oats, Peas, and Beans ; and our Readers will perceive by last night's Gazette, that our information was perfectly correct. At the Council held yesterday by his MAJESTY at Windsor, a Proclamation was issued extending the prorogation of Parliament to Tuesday the 14th Nov., and declaring his MAJESTY'S Royal will and pleasure that the %aid Parliament shall on that day be held, and sit, lig. the dispatch of divers urgent and important affairs. At the same time an Order in Council was issued, referring to the provisions of the Acts for regu lating the Importation of Foreign Corn, - and stating than at the present time the average prices of Oats and Peas are above the prices at which importation is by those Acts to be admitted, and that the prices, thereof are still rising ; but that as no foreign. grain, what ever may be the average prices of the same, can be ad mitted to entry for home 'consumption, till after the 15th November next, when the quarterly average will he made up, his MAJESTY takes upon himself to order that Foreign Oats, Oatmeal, Rye, Peas, and Beans, whether warehoused or otherwise, shall and may, from this time, be permitted to be entered for home consumption, provided parties entering the same give bond for the payment of any duties which Par liament shall authorize to be levied, not exceeding the following amount, Oats, per Quarter Oatmeal, per Bull ts. 2d. Rye, Peas, and , Beans, per Quarter Such permission to enter these articles to continue in force until the expiration of forty days from the day of the next Meeting of Parliament, unless Parliament shall previously to the expiration of the said forty days make provision to the contrary. wise These willbe ap approved determinations oved b o v e f his MAJESTY'S Go y every, thinking person in the Kingdom. The failure of the crops of Oats, Peas, &c., and the probable deficiency in the Potatoe crop, must, by enhancing the price of those articles, and with them that of various others; to an immense degree, add to the distress now generally prevailing in the United Kingdom, before importation could take place, under the provisions of the existing Acts for re gulating the admission of Foreign Corn ; and too much praise, therefore, cannot be given to his MA JESTY'S Government for their prompt and determined measure in taking the r esponsibility of authorizing the immediate importation of these articles. A measure of such importance could not, however, be well adopted without obtaining the early sanction of the Legislature, and hence the necessity of calling Parliament together at as early a period as possible, with due regard to the convenience of the Members of both Houses. Th e pr e sent situation of public affai is re lations in va r i ous 01d the state of the country generally,and Ireland in ticular, combine also to ren d er t l par , le assembling of Parliament as a right and proper measure ; we, there ibre, cannot but congratulate the country that the great C ounc il .of the, Nation will thus be site ing prior to that oeriod at which, from various circumstances, we antici pate the recurrence of much and general distress. The Paris Papers of Wednesday, and the .toile o f Thursday morning, reached us last night. The latter contains a communication from Syra of the 4th August, which gives a miserable picture of the affairs of Greece. The intrepid CANAHIS was severely wounded in an engagement between the Greek and Turkish fleets off Samos, in which his fire-ship was sunk ; but the action led to no decisive result. The French Admiral de RI Ni had sent a surgeon to at tend him, with the courtesy of the French Officers of former days. According to these accounts, Athens had been abandoned by its inhabitants and burnt, and the Turks were blockading the citadel. The Etoile also states, that public discontent increases at Constantinople, and that a re-action is apprehended. The same paper con tradicts the account given in the preceding day's paper, of the meeting of the Great-Council at Ma drid. The following are extracts : (From the Etoile of Slit August.) SVR A (ARCHIPELAGO), AUG.' 4.--=-At an 'engagement which took place between the Greek and Turkish fleets oil Samos, but which led to no result, the fire-ship of Canarii was run down, and that intrepid Comniander was severely wounded. He was carried to Naxos, and the 'French schooner Dauphinoise was sent by Admiral Rigny to 'bring him the assistance of a surgeon. The islands are inexpectation of what will take place at Samos, whose fate they will most likely follow. The Turks are blockading the citadel of Athens; the town, after being set on fire by the inhabitants, was evacuated. M. Fabvier was to leave Hydra and Doro, and go to Attica with about a thousand men : 1,500 Rounieliotes have also quitted Napoli di Romania for Athens. The troops under Redschid Pacha amount to about 6,000 or 7,000 men. Ibrahim has • again quitted Itis camp of Nissi, to march towards Tripolitza. A part of the Greek fleet is before Hydra, whose Primates are closely watched. It is not likely that the Turks will succeed in taking possession of this position, which has become the key of the insurrec tion. One would even suppose they are willing to let the Greeks exhaust themselves again this year; so that the solntion appears again adjourned. There is no intelligence yet as to Lord Cochrane'* 1 ing arrived in the Archipelago, though he hes been Pre ceded by warlike stores, and some English officers engaged with him ; but even. these officers doubt his coming ft i 4 known that one of the steam-vessels which WAS destined to the expedition of which he is to take the command !d -ieted damage in its machinery, and went into Cagliari. PARIS, Ave. 30.—We learn from Constantinople, that the public discontent continues, and a re-action's feared.
